Late Friday night, I headed up with friends Tom & David to their home in Sharon, Connecticut. It turns out that 90 miles away, life is a little slower and it's a great spot for the weekend. Things last longer there. Their house was built in 1840, and on Saturday, neighbors hosted dinner in a house constructed in 1740. That's right, 273 years ago...a lot of people have passed through that house. Glad to add my name to the list.
